Hello Planeteers!.
Here's some more progress pics of my National garde officer.
the coat lights and shadows are done,some outlining too,just few dettails to go over.
the arms finally decided to change the smoking pipe arm and added an arm which will be holding a walking stick, i really like the pose and i am happy with it.
the arms are basecoated only,still need lights and shadows.
Once i finish the figure i will post all the mixes.
Best regards

Looks good, as per usual Daniel...
I really like how you approached the blue of the jacket. I'll be waiting for the recipes with my pen ready

Keep it up

Colin

Hi Daniel,
You are supposed to be; polishing your shoes, pressing your clothes and writing your wedding speech. Not painting figures!!!
But good work here on this piece Mate.
Cheers,
Keith

Nice blue Daniel.

Pedro

Thanks Colin!
I am happy withthe blue , turn out to be the right mix for me,unfortunatelly books and sources on internet have so many variations of the colors that at the end one has to decide which one to choose from.
Recipee from the chef's kitchen :
Base: a drop of citadel Necron Abyss , a drop of Prince August "Bleu Moyen" (vallejo medium blue) and a dab of Andrea Navy Blue (NAC-11)
Lights: Base + bleu moyen,last lights added a litle bit of dark sky blue.
shadows: base plus Navy blue,last shadows used only a drop of navy blue and 4 drops of distilled water.
Outlining of the coat used pure black.
Cheers my friend.

...i did my homework Keith! ,actually after today i don't think i am going to be able to paint, i have my family coming from out of town, but maybe i'll sneck some brushes here and there .
Best regards and thanks for passing by.

Excellent work mate. Really pleased its worked out so well

Thanks!

Daniel... Getting married? Are you sure? From now on, you'll catch hell if you spend too much time or money painting

Seriously though, Congratulations my friend... best of luck. It's really not all that bad

Cheers

Colin

Lol, thanks mate. It's been 4 years living together and a beautiful 3 Y.O. daughter, so this is just fomalizing and a lot of joy doing it.
I keep buying miniatures and paints with my own bank account hehe
best regards

Ahhh, so this is nothing new... just a fancy party.
Every man needs a secret stash of "Fun Money" to stay sane and independant... good job mate

Very nicely done Daniel, following.

Cheers Ken

Believe me, a lot of stress for the planning, family is coming out of town and the whole nine yards,it's going to be fun
I hope the blue recipe works for you mate!

Did the same mess 22 years ago... alot of work to set up but worth it in the end

Just enjoy the day

Thanks mate.
Hoping to see some of your work soon .
